MILLER HOUSE

Miller House is a Category 1 Historic house, which has been lovingly restored to a luxurious standard after it was damaged by fire in  2014.

This beautiful homestead has stunning mountain views, original artwork, central heating and a cozy fire.

With spectacular mountain views of the Cosmos Peaks and surrounded on three sides by native forest, this cosy cottage is the perfect place for a true retreat. 

It is a firm favourite for visitors to Paradise due to its serene environment.

We’re not going to talk it up. This is a rustic kiwiana backcountry hut. But it’s very enchanting as the name suggests.

A fireplace in the lounge makes this cottage toasty warm and the wood range/wetback in the kitchen heats water for a nice hot shower.

A true piece of paradise for those that love nature.
